Criminal Defense Attorney in Tacoma

Accomplished & Helpful Legal Representation

When law enforcement read you your Miranda rights after your arrest, they
said that you have the right to an attorney. This is a right that everyone
arrested in Washington State should take advantage of as soon as possible.
A criminal defense attorney is a valuable asset for defending you against
the criminal charges you face.

How can a Criminal Defense Attorney Help Me?

No criminal defense attorney can guarantee that he can clear you of criminal
charges. What a criminal defense attorney can do is assess your situation
and help you fight to reduce or eliminate some of the charges you are
facing. Even if we are unable to get the charges dismissed, there may
be options to reduce the penalties or seek a lesser charge.

Do I Need a Criminal Defense Attorney?

If you have been arrested and have any type of charges pending against
you, you may need to hire an attorney. Washington State’s criminal
laws are complex. There can be major differences between the penalties
for a simple assault charge and an aggravated assault charge, for example.
Each case may require unique evidence, which an attorney can help you
secure, and case strategy, which an attorney can help create.

Hiring a criminal defense attorney also places someone on your side whose
focus is giving you the representation and defense to which you are entitled.
Fighting criminal charges alone can result in accepting penalties higher
than necessary or missing out on potential plea bargains that can also
reduce your sentence. Make sure you get the legal defense to exercise
and protect your rights.

What Kind of Cases Do You Handle?

This is one of the most important questions to ask a criminal defense attorney
before you hire him. At Daryl Graves Law, PLLC we help clients facing
the following charges.

From pre-charge representation to post-charge expungement and the entire
criminal defense process in between, we are at your side every step of
the way. When your future is at stake due to criminal charges,
